institutional · 2026-04-26

The Climate Museum, founded by human rights lawyer Miranda Massie in 2013, has operated as a nomadic institution hosted by organizations like Columbia University's Earth Institute. After a decade without a fixed location, it will open a permanent three-story space at 418 11th Avenue in Hudson Yards, New York, in 2027. The project involves a $1.35 billion investment from Moinian Group and Boston Properties, with architecture by FXCollaborative. The museum will span over 2,000 square meters, including exhibition spaces, event halls, offices, a café, and a bookshop. Massie stated that the arts help people recognize their power in climate action, and a permanent space will amplify that impact.
